QUESTIONS FOR JUNIOR CLASSES. SECOND EDITION, CORRECTED. WINCHESTER: Printed by ROBBINS and WHEELER, College-street. MDCCCXXVIII. PRICE 2s. 6d. THE COMPILER'S CAUTION ΤΟ YOUNG READERS. FREQUENT examination by question and answer, on all the subjects of your study, is an excellent practice; and Summaries of this sort are highly useful in drawing out your knowledge and supplying you with a kind of Memoria Technica, on many points, of which, in the upper parts of a great school, it would shame you to be ignorant. But do not expect to be made historians or critics by ever so fluent a repetition of these short catechisms, which are designed to assist and not to supersede your private studies. It is true, that a stock of learning, like a stock of wealth, is of little service, if you have not some by you for ready use; but let no boy think himself sufficiently rich, who has only a little of this small change in his pocket.
